Stripped Bare (kakashiXsakura)

chapter 21

Sakura awoke feeling groggy, disoriented, and slightly nauseous, no doubt from the drug Koudo had injected her with. She opened her eyes to find herself in what looked to be a private car of a train. The shades were drawn over the windows, leaving the interior of the car dim and preventing her from knowing where the train was traveling.

She had no recollection of boarding, or even of leaving Dajaku's office. She had to wonder if her captor had ordered her to walk calmly to the station and then forget all about it.

She wondered where Kakashi was, and if he'd be able to find her. If only she had known she had been drugged sooner. She could have explained her actions and prevented their fight. Even if he did come save her and she told him the truth, she wondered if anything between them could be salvaged. Her heart sank as she remembered that nothing had existed between them in the first place. There were no feelings, only sex. There was nothing to fix because no relationship existed.

Sakura looked across from her to find Tsurenai on the opposite seat, body leaning against the wall, just as the kunoichi's had been. It looked like she was still sound asleep.

Sakura knew who sat beside her even before turning to look. She shifted slightly in her seat, trying to draw her strength for an attack on her captor, but it seemed her limbs were still under the command of another.

The man at her side chuckled.

"Awake already?" he mused, his voice smooth and rich as ever. "I expected you to sleep until we reached our destination, but it seems I've underestimated you. You're certainly a remarkable specimen."

"Bastard," she croaked, her tongue feeling thick and dry inside her mouth. She longed to spring to her feet and grasp his head in both hands, snapping it until his disturbingly yellow eyes were staring vacantly at the wall behind him, neck broken. However, just twitching a finger currently seemed a difficult task and she could do nothing more than sit obediently. All the hate and rage she possessed were focused in her green gaze that now glittered dangerously like deadly fragments of broken glass.

Koudo only seemed amused by her insult, smirking as he reached out to run fingers through her disheveled pink strands.

Without warning, he hauled her forward into a rough kiss. Sakura complied like a rag doll, unable to stop her body from pressing snugly to his. He suckled at her lips before pushing his tongue past them, violating her mouth while she was unable to push him away. With no other way to defend herself, Sakura did all she could. She summoned her strength and bit him hard.

The bite wasn't enough to draw blood, but it was enough to make her assailant grunt in pain and pull away, but instead of anger, he only continued to look at her with amusement.

"So much spirit," he chuckled. "The boss is going to love you. He likes watching the strong ones break down."

Sakura only continued to glare hatefully, vowing that once they got to wherever they were going, she would be sure to kill this so called 'boss' too, even if she had no idea how she would accomplish it while her strength eluded her.

"I'm going to kiss you again," Koudo murmured, voice full of self confidence that only fueled Sakura's anger. "And this time, you are going to enjoy it."

She was powerless to stop him as he leaned in again, keeping his fingers entwined firmly in her hair as he pressed his lips to hers. Despite her disgust and rage and killing intent, she felt a liquid heat began to burn between her legs, and to her horror, as his tongue once more parted soft, pink lips, a lusty moan rose up from within her.

Kakashi burst through the double doors of the club, destroying the lock that held them shut. The loud sound probably alerted everyone in the building to his presence but he couldn't care about stealth at the moment. He needed to find Sakura and fast because it had been Dajuku's name that had been written on that piece of paper.
